The First Military Division of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 519 Secret Connection
"Zhang Ren retreated for twenty miles..."

After receiving this news, Xiahou Dun and others were embarrassed. What they were worried about happened, and Zhang Ren stopped attacking Sun Quan in Jialing.

"It must be that Liu Zhang felt that Sun Quan was no longer his threat, and he was on guard against us, so he came down to Zhang Ren to retreat and monitor us." Dong Zhao frowned, but it was not difficult to imagine, after all, they came After such a long time, they have not attacked Jialing once, and everyone can see their intentions.

"What should we do now?" Xiahou Dun had no choice but to let him attack Jialing?Impossible, this is not in line with their strategic plan.

"Zhang Ren will not attack Jialing, and with me waiting, Sun Quan will not rush out of the city. The only result is that we and the three parties will be stuck in a stalemate, and the journey will take time." Cheng Yu thought of what kind of result they would face, the three parties restrained each other, Whoever strikes first will be unlucky.

"No, I can't wait to waste time again." Xiahou Dun recalled what Cao Cao had repeatedly told him to enter Yizhou this time. He must be quick and take Yizhou before Liu Bei recovers. Otherwise, once Liu Bei recovers, he will intervene. Yizhou, it will be difficult for them to win Yizhou again.

"The only way is to make Liu Zhang feel the crisis, and once again order Zhang Ren to attack Jialing at all costs, exhausting the forces of both sides." Dong Zhao also knew that this time-consuming should not be done now, otherwise their plan to seize Yizhou would be in vain.

"I have a plan to make Liu Zhang feel in danger." As soon as Cheng Yu said that, everyone looked over hurriedly.

"Hehe." Cheng Yu said with a slight smile, "The general can send someone to tell Liu Zhang that the war is now at a stalemate, and Sun Quan's army is strong and strong. I will not be able to attack for a long time. I would like to ask my lord to increase my troops by 20."

"This..." Xiahou Dun hesitated for a moment, and then said: "My lord has limited soldiers and horses, and needs to guard against Liu Bei, and the food and grass are temporarily insufficient. How can we increase the number of troops by 20?"

"Hahaha." Dong Zhao said on the side, "Liu Zhang will know about such top-secret matters. Once Liu Zhang learns that the lord wants to increase his troops by 20, he will definitely have trouble sleeping and eating. He can only find a way to eliminate my lord's increase of troops meaning."

"Of course." Cheng Yu nodded slightly and said, "The only thing Liu Zhang can think of is to let Zhang Ren attack Sun Quan at all costs until Sun Quan is driven out of Yizhou, so that we have no excuse to increase our troops."

"Very good!" Xiahou Dun was overjoyed, and immediately followed Cheng Yu's plan, and sent someone to tell Liu Zhang that he would allow Cao Cao to increase his troops, and at the same time let Liu Zhang prepare the food and grass needed for the 20 army.

As Cheng Yu expected, Liu Zhang was terrified after hearing this, and resolutely opposed Cao Cao's increase of 20 troops, and he would not allow [-]. He assured that the current troops were completely sufficient to deal with Sun Quan, and there was no need to waste food and grass.

Afterwards, Liu Zhang, regardless of the objections of Li Hui and others, hastily sent [-] reinforcements to Zhang Ren, and asked Zhang Ren to attack Jialing immediately, and Sun Quan must be driven out of Yizhou within half a month.

"Heaven will kill me, Yizhou!"

When Zhang Ren received Liu Zhang's order, he looked up to the sky and sighed. Everything was over. Liu Zhang even ordered him to attack Sun Quan at all costs. Flip.

"Xiahoudun, since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unrighteous. If you want to take Yizhou from me, you can forgive me."

After Zhang Ren became disheartened, he seemed to have made a decision to gather a large army and prepare to continue to attack Jialing.

But that night, a guest came from Jialing City and asked to see Sun Quan in secret. A letter was placed in front of Sun Quan, which made Sun Quan look cloudy and uncertain for a while, so he immediately recruited several counselors to discuss.

"Zhang Ren wants to join hands with me to destroy Xiahou Dun's [-] soldiers."

Sun Quan went straight to the point without procrastinating, and directly told about Zhang Ren secretly sending someone to see him.

"I'm afraid it's Zhang Ren and Xiahou Dun's plan..." Gu Yong's first reaction was disbelief. They have been beating lives and deaths for so long, and both sides have suffered countless casualties, but now they are joining forces, how can people believe it.

"It's not impossible." Lu Su frowned and said, "Zhang Ren's sudden retreat before must have been because he didn't want Xiahou Dun to catch the fisherman. Now that there is a large army approaching, I'm afraid Xiahou Dun used tricks to force Zhang Ren to continue fighting with us. .”

"Everyone knows Xiahou Dun's heart. We will consume each other with Zhang Ren, and Yizhou will eventually fall into his hands." Zhuge Jin frowned slightly and said, "My lord, if you want to take Yizhou, you must first destroy Xiahou Dun. It is not appropriate to fight with Zhang Ren first." Zhang Ren is desperate."

"My lord, Zhang Ren should sincerely unite with us." After Lu Su thought for a while, he said: "I can't kill Xiahou Dun, Zhang Ren and I are both uneasy, now this opportunity is rare, we can take this opportunity to make Zhang Ren and Xiahou Dun turn against each other. "

"En." Sun Quan nodded slightly, and after contemplating for a while, he looked at Lu Su and the others and said, "You can join forces with Zhang Ren, but you can't be tricked by Zhang Ren. Do you have a clever plan?"

After hearing this, Lu Su stood up and said, "My lord, now that Xiahou Dun and Zhang Ren's army are out, it is useless for Jialing to occupy them. You can abandon Jialing and pretend to be defeated all the way. Zhang Ren and Xiahou Dun will definitely come after them, and then lie in ambush halfway to attack Zhang Ren." Xiahou Dun."

"Abandon Jialing?" Sun Quan frowned, he was a bit reluctant, Jialing is a big city in Yizhou, and it's not far from Chengdu, if you give up Jialing, it will be difficult to take it back in the future.

"My lord, if you want to trick Xiahou Dun, you must not only give up Jialing, but also Zhuti, Xichang and other places." Lu Su was in a hurry. Xiahou Dun had capable people around him, and it was impossible for them to be fooled by ordinary tricks.

"My lord, in order to seize Yizhou, it is also necessary to temporarily give up part of the city." Gu Yong hastily persuaded that this is a rare opportunity and cannot be missed.

"That's it. Tomorrow, pretend to be defeated, and lure Xiahou Dun to come and chase." After pondering for a while, Sun Quan made a decision. For the sake of the whole Yizhou, it is not impossible to temporarily abandon part of the city.

"Sun Quan wants to withdraw from Yizhou, don't let him run away." On the second day, Zhang Ren's attack had just begun, and Sun Quan led the army to break through. Zhang Ren successfully captured Jialing. chase.

"No hurry, send someone to inform Zhang Ren and let him continue to pursue. I will wait for the army to follow." Cheng Yu stopped Xiahou Dun, and then said: "Now the primary goal is to send troops to occupy the Yizhou city checkpoint left by Sun Quan after he retreated. Don't fall into it." Zhang Renzhi's hand, this is our retreat."

Soon, Xiahou Dun's army came out, followed Sun Quan all the way, and Zhang Ren snatched the city gates that Sun Quan had vacated.

"Luzhou, kill!"

Just a few words were placed in front of Zhang Ren, and Sun Quan was finally ready to make a move. Zhang Ren began to plan. He didn't want to be tricked by Sun Quan.
